Abstract
Smart Mobility and Communication Technologies are transforming our communities in smart sustainable human aggregates which require continuous improvements in terms of installed communications and services. These complex network of wires and ducts have to be continuously updated, maintained and repaired considering the increasing obsolescence rate of new technologies. These continuous efforts have to be optimized in order to be sustainable in terms of costs, environmental impact, public soil occupation, perturbation of the complex organization of the involved urban communities. It's also important to remember the fundamental role that an efficient exploitation of natural resources (Water, GeoThermal Energy, etc.) and underground distribution resources, can play in order to produce a sustainable development of human communities. No Dig Technologies represents a clear response to this kind of troubles. In particular, EGT Srl, a consolidated manufacturer of solutions concerning drilling and more generally geotechnical applications, proposes a new generation of directional drilling machines designed to satisfy these incoming challenges. New machines have to be electrified in order to improve environmental impact. They have to be smart and interconnected with a variety of systems and functionalities of Smart Construction Yards to increase safety and optimal resource allocation. Finally, the new machine has to be designed to be a proactive tool able to measure, and collect a large amount of data concerning performed activities and inspected soils. In order to satisfy these ambitious specifications without sacrificing the traditional robustness of machines that have to guarantee high level of reliability even in harsh conditional environment, EGT Srl has to redefine and improve design, manufacturing and maintenance approaches. This effort which is presented in this work is the object of a multidisciplinary interaction with research and industrial partners that are harmonically integrated in the STIGE research program (Sviluppo di Trivelle Innovative per attività Geologiche con alimentazione Elettrica).
